The device has its own software Pi-TopOS Polaris developed by the pi-top team itself. This software has a simple algorithm for learning on its own.

The Pi-Top comes with an Inventor’s Kit, which includes LEDs, motion sensors, buttons, speaker, mic and a manual for creating your own projects. The pi-top bundle comes with 20 such parts.
